Redirect old web addresses
Last updated
Send an old address, such as one from a previous website, to the right page so links and search results still land.

- Website, then Redirects
A redirect sends visitors from an old address to a page on your site. Use it when you move from another website, or when you have changed a page's address.
Add one redirect
Open Website, then the Redirects tab.
Type the Old address, such as /about-us.html. A full web address works too, with the https at the start.
Under Send to, choose the page that should answer.
Choose Add redirect.
Add many at once
Choose Add many at once. Under Old and new addresses, write one redirect per line: the old address, a space, then the new one. For example: /about-us.html /about. Choose Add redirects.
Remove a redirect
Choose Remove redirect beside the one you want to remove. That old address stops redirecting.
When you change a page's address
If you use Change address in the editor, visitors to the old address go to the new one without you adding anything here. A page that has never been live moves without one. See Set search titles and share images.
